Benjamin Moore

Lemon Grove

363

Lemon Grove is a saturated, mid-tone yellow carrying a noticeable green-gold undertone that pushes it toward chartreuse in certain lighting. With an LRV of 59.94, it absorbs more light than typical pale yellows and holds its own as a statement color. Silver Mist or Blue Echo can temper its intensity on adjacent walls, while Cedar Green reinforces the lime lean in a deliberate way.

For grounding, Warm Sienna or Chocolate Candy Brown provide tonal contrast that keeps the yellow from overwhelming a scheme.

Lemon Grove in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
